brandon webb, jack murphy, welcome to the show. in the right-wing media, there is a lot of discussion about the lack of security. clearly, there was a lack of security in benghazi, but what is not discussed is what led up to the attacks, the blowback. jack murphy, i want to start with you. >> there are a number of been trading factors that led to these attacks. when we talk about the blowback effect, we have to understand this is a group of people, this motion was not particularly fond of americans to begin with, many foreign fighters, international jihadists who were part of that attack. what has not been talked about in the media is that there were covert operation being run inside libya, targeting killings against motion members, al qaeda personnel, and securing weapons that had fallen into militia hands which we did not want them to have in the post-war libya which was destabilizing the transitional government. there were a series of operations over the summer, and even in that week of september leading up to the attack. >> u.s
